The formula to calculate median = (N+1) /2 th term of the series where N is the number of observation in the series.
The given series is first arranged into ascending; 4,5,6,,8,9,11
N = 6
Median = (6+1)/2 th term
= 7/2 th term = 3.5 th term
= ( value of 3rd term + value of 4th term)/2 = (6+8) /2
= 14/2
= 7.
